What do you think of these rumours?
Can you imagine they will work together.
I wondered anyway, why there wasn't at least ONE song on the "In the Zone" album.

What sound would you expect/prefer?

:wink:

I remember Britney once saying "I will have a Max Martin-song on every album I record."

He's been a major impact on her career. Where would she be today without ... Baby One More Time?

Absolutely. Actually "Baby one more time" was intended to be recorded by the girl-band TLC, but luckily Britney's managment heard it!
I also heard that 5ive wanted to have that song too, but I am not sure if it's correct!

I gotta say I was soo disappointed that there was no Max Martin on Britney's In The Zone. In The Zone was good, I like it cos it was still Britney, but I rarely feel the urge to play it, it's doesn't have the something special like what Max Martin (& co)brought to her other albums.

Well, I am being positive and believe the rumours, that they are at least writing some songs for her.

Britney seems to really want a comeback and what better way than with a Max Martin song?

I am worried thought that she will want to go with a trendy producer like Timbaland, not that he's bad, but he's no Max Martin.

Hey!  

I think it's quite tricky too!

Britney is now more into Rnb or something like that, and Max Martin obviously in the rock/pop with an edge sound.

I can't imagine Britney singing something like "Who knew" or "Since U been gone". Maybe the best thing would be to write ballads, as they are more timeless and she could impress people with it.

The good thing is, Max has showed in the past that he is extremely versatile, a thing Britney will definitely benefit from!

Yeah, you are right that 5ive wanted that song. I have Simon Cowell's book (' I don't mean to be rude, but') who managed them at the time and he says he heard the song and begged Max Martin for the song. He said he rang up Max and said if you give Five that song i'll deliver to you a very expensive car (maybe a mercedes, i can't remember). Max Martin said sorry i've already given my word to Britney. yay!

I can't imaging Five or TLC singing that song.

Quote from: "turnaround"I wondered anyway, why there wasn't at least ONE song on the "In the Zone" album.

I think the Max Martin sound wouldn't have matched the whole idea of "In The Zone". It's my least fave Britney album.

If there's in fact gonna be a song on Brit's new album, I guess it'd go the direction of Paris' "Nothing In This World" from Lukasz...
We'll see. Would be glad if they'd work together! :-)

Yeah, I could also imagine Britney singing a song like "I don't think so" (Kelis).

I would love of course, if she returned to pure Pop, and maybe shock with an absolutely cheesy song, but can't imagine that right now.   :cry:

Yeah, I would love it if she returned to pure pop. Remember after her first album some people thought she was a one-hit wonder then she came out with Oops I Did it again and it went no 1 everywhere! a song nobody could resist.  I'm hoping it's going be the same, just something totally pop but with an edge.

oh, yeah, Britney would have been great singing Kelis's I don't think so.

and i agree also i couldn't imagine her singing Since U Been Gone - well it would have sounded a lot different.

Paris Hilton - Nothing In This World ( dr. luke ) was a pop/rock song.
Why not Spears ?

Finally some news, but only concerning Luke!

New Britney Track Title Revealed   

QuoteDr. Luke Gottwald recently spoke to Us Weekly Magazine about working with Britney on her new album. Dr. Luke is the hot-shot record producer behind some of the biggest pop hits of the last few years including Kelly Clarkson's hit songs "Since U Been Gone" and "Behind These Hazel Eyes," as well as writing and producing for Avril Lavigne, Pink, and the Backstreet Boys.

Dr. Luke talked about working with Britney, and says the track he produced is "a feel good, upbeat song." The song is called, "All the Way."
